It seems like a simple enough error, but I’m stumped. This trips when I attempt to make install, after the build has completed.

```auto
  FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
  '/home/woodcn2/git-repos/build-paraview/install/lib/catalyst/libcatalyst-paraview.so'

```

I’m trying to do this on a rocky linux desktop. Steps to reproduce:

```auto
git clone --recursive https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview-superbuild.git
cd paraview-superbuild
git checkout v5.10.1
git submodule update
mkdir ../build-paraview
cd ../build-paraview
ccmake ../paraview-superbuild/
<activate osmesa>
make -j28
make install

```

ParaView superbuild usually do not require make install.

I was attempting the make install to see if it fixed the more pertinent problem I was encountering. When I run

```auto
<build-directory>/install/bin/pvserver --version

```

I get

```auto
paraview version 5.11.0-RC1-35-g6d9192059f

```

instead of 5.10.1.

You need to choose paraview 5.10.1 in the cmake conf of the superbuild instead of choosing git.

I checked out the v5.10.1 tag. That was my problem; I missed the cmake conf flag.
